Review from Neale G (Resident) published on 26 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Unhygienic, non-Covid safe, staff continually lied to me, fobbed me off, failed to deal with my hospital discharge diagnosis of epilepsy, to the point of denying I had any record of seizures, the list goes on and on.
Basic hygiene standards were not followed and ignored when I pointed the most basic
of failings out to staff. Residents were allowed to walk around with their hands down their trousers and then handling food and cutlery left out for others.
Several residents openly coughed and sneezed with no face protection, I was even ridiculed for wearing a face mask in the company of these residents.
No Covid protections were followed, not even the Scottish laws at the time. In Scotland. Awful dreadful place. Do not get sent there.
Other residents told me how awful it was. I'm glad I was able to leave when I was, and not in a coffin. Thank God I made it out when I could.
